For what it is worth: I purchased a '98 TBS with 15k on it, looks beautiful, this past April, for $3,000. I've put Nology coils, spark plugs, tires, chain and sprockets, coolant and oil. It's a winner I think. I'm in the Charlotte, NC area. Just for your info.

Best, Jimmy

I did the bushings and changed the fork oil at the same time I did the seals. I purchased the official Triumph tools which made the job easier, not cheaper.

Sorry for the delay in responding. In the process of moving and everything
is still in the moving van till next week. As I remember I purchased the
following Triumph tools through my dealer.

Fork Seal Drift
Fork Rod Tool
Fork Cylinder Adaptor

When I'm able to locate my service manual and unpack my tool box I can
double check that info.

I know people have fabricated these items.

If you need to hold the lower fork leg you can use a large bench vice but be
sure to use some wood to protect the leg

I just replaced both front fork seals. Used service tools #3880090 and 3880080. Could also have used # 3880085 but somehow missed ordering it. Got creative with a piece of wire and made it work. Like Gary I changed bushings and seals at same time. Good Sunday afternoon project.

I just ordered the Ignitech TCIP4 Ignition module for my 03 TBS. anyone have experience with the installation. Mostly curious if it comes already programmed or do I have to guess at the settings?
